Creating a Pollinator Meadow: Part I - Site Preparation

Call for Volunteers

Learn how to prepare a native meadow on this farm in Gardiner NY. We will start by filling sandbags and then lay tarps on two areas--a lawn and a field. The tarps will be held in place with the sandbags. Over the summer, the tarps will smother the existing plants enabling us to sow meadow seeds this fall.  Watch for the volunteer meadow seeding event in November. This meadow installation is designed to support pollinators at risk of local extinction.

Refreshments will be provided.

This is a free, public event on private property and requires registration. Address will be sent to all who register. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please contact [email protected].

This meadow is one of four anchor sites for Pollinate Now!, a project of Partners for Climate Action Hudson Valley. Learn More about Pollinate Now! in the link below.
